    I think they are adorable together... but I was still so sad when Corran Horn was no longer available. :(

    Corran Horn is a total hottie. If Mirax weren't so cool in her own right, I'd be very jealous. As it is, I'm happy for them. They seem to work very well together.

    I love the banter between them. Especially in the early X-Wing books.

    "I wish I could help."
    "Of course you do. If I wanted to kill my father I'd send him a holo and tell him Hal Horn's son said he wished he could help me make some runs."
    "Somewhere in orbit between Corellia and Selonia my father's ashes are trying to recoalesce to stop me."
    -- Rogue Squadron, page 149

    "She wouldn't be good for you."
    "And who would? You?"
    "In your dreams, CorSec."
    -- Rogue Squadron, page 322

    "Okay, so get to the trouble part."
    "Mirax, be serious."
    "I am. You forget, dear heart, that it was an X-Wing and a freighter that lit up the first Death Star."
    -- The Bacta War, page 6

    "Bomb? Nope, too quick. I want her to linger."
    "Remind me never to make you angry."
    "You'll never do that, love...at least not more than once."
    -- The Bacta War, page 101

    "Your father and I just had it out. He said I'd abandoned you on Thyferra."
    "What?!"
    "...and I accused him of having abandoned you when he went to Kessel."
    "What?! You really told him that?"
    "Yeah, then I told him that you were everything he wanted to be and that the last person he should want interested in his daughter was someone who held himself to the same level of morality and responsibility he did."
    "And you still have your arms and legs intact?"
    "Your father isn't exactly a Wookiee, Mirax. Besides, it was about that point when Wedge intervened."
    "Ah, that explains why you're both still alive."
    -- The Bacta War, page 263

    I love it! These two are awesome. Corran is awesome in pretty much every aspect. Mirax is cool. Perfect couple!

    May as well chime in. I don't particular like Horn (but he's admittedly witty), but I am rather fond of Mirax Terrik and I enjoyed I, Jedi, so I guess I'm a nominal supporter. :p

    I particularly enjoyed their verbal sparring sessions in RS and WEG. Fascinating stars of early EU, I say. The "fathers are deadly enemies" bit is a nice touch.

    They do, also, have the funniest father-in-law in town: Booster Terrik. He's just as awesome as his daughter.

    I couldn't agree with you more, GrandAdmiralJello -- Booster's a riot.

    Corran's one of my favorite characters... probably second behind Wedge. The banter between him and Mirax is great, perfect couple indeed :p

    I love C/M. Its one of the first pilot canon relationships, and they are so cutesy! Wait till Myra comes back, she'll love it here.

    Corran's awesome. I think Mirax was perfect for him, the banter in the early x-wing books is ROTFLMAO!!!

    Definitely a awesome couple.

    Yep, they are the perfect match. And probably the only couple I know about that are 100% for each other. For instance, Luke and Mara should not be together. I say Luke should dump her.:)

    I like Corran and Mirax. But I think Ooryl and Mirax would make for a better couple.

    Imagine their children....:eek:

    Luke and Mara seems pretty good to me. Considering she wanted to violently murder him.

    Booster probably would have thought so, too.

    "Sure, he's a Gand, but at least he's not Hal Horn's son!"

    :p

    Sure it is! First you get a bed. Then Ooryl naked. Then Mirax naked.

    Then [THIS PART HAS BEEN CENSORED DUE TO EXTREME NATURE OF CONTENT] and there you go! Bug-people!

    Ooh, I love Corran and Mirax. It's always been my own personal (incredibly far-fetched) theory that Stackpole created them to write how Luke and Mara SHOULD be. ;) I'd love to see a few more stories about Corran and Mirax. I, Jedi was okay but too introspective and focussed on Corran.

    I think Corran/Mirax is one of the best pairings in the EU. Not only are both characters great in their own right, but they play so well off of each other. It's too bad that Mirax didn't have a big role in the NJO books, but there's no reason why Stackpole can't come back and give us a good Corran/Mirax story.
    Corran has one of the most diverse backgrounds of any character (detective, fighter pilot, Jedi) and Mirax is, in my opinion, the strongest female character in the books, so it'd be a shame if we didn't learn anything of their further adventures.

    I concur with both of you, I'd love to see more Corran and Mirax stories. You can tell that Michael Stackpole put a lot of care in creating them. They're both very solid characters with interesting back stories and they're perfect for each other.

    Does anyone know if Corran and/or Mirax have made any appearances in comics lately? I'm way behind in picking up the TPBs. I know they both appeared in Union, but after that, I have no clue.

    They're like Romeo and Juliet, but with snark.
